MetalCloak's Duroflex bushings are designed to work in parallel, but what about the axle side?

Factory Clevite bushings will work in conjunction with Duroflex bushings. Factory Clevites are a self centering rubber bushing, however, they have a very limited range of performance.

To optimize the Duroflex joints in your MetalCloak control arms and fully benefit with:

Increased dampening of NVH (noise/vibration/harshness)

Articulation (34 degrees)

Rotation (360 degrees)

Upgrade the Clevites to Duroflex Axle-Side Bushings! With this weld-on system you will upgrade your bushings along with strengthening the weak stock tower-housing with the New MetalCloak Front Duroflex Weld-On Bracket and Axle Bushing Kit!

The Front Duroflex Weld-On Axle Bushing Kit comes complete with a press-in Duroflex bushing for the cast side and a reinforced weld-on bracket to contain the Duroflex Bushing on the other side.

Note:MetalCloak's Front Duroflex Weld-On Bracket and Axle Bushing Kit ONLY works with MetalCloak's Duroflex Control Arms. MetalCloak's Front Duroflex Weld-On Bracket and Axle Bushing Kit is not recommended for any other control arms.

The included billet tower reinforcement and 11GA steel plated gusset welds to the axle provides additional strength over the factory bracket. Get the unparalleled ride performance and increased strength with the MetalCloak Front Duroflex Weld-On Axle Bushing Kit.

Duroflex bushings provide the best vibration dampening (NVH) anywhere, along with more self-centering misalignment than any other bushing available.

MetalCloak's Front Duroflex Weld-On Bracket and Axle Bushing Kit ONLY works with MetalCloak's Steel and Aluminum Duroflex Control Arms.
